HIATUS --- indefinitely. I've been working on a major overhaul for this one, because, frankly, I hate it. I may or may not come back to it, I haven't decided. If anyone reads this and is inspired, I'd be MORE than happy for your assistance.

When things got out of hand Lily ran away. When people started letting her down she left everything she knew behind to start a new life elsewhere. But when her best friend from back home gets sick and is fighting for her life Lily makes the decision to come home to be with her friends and face James Potter, possibly the very reason she left in the first place. The question is when things get tough, will Lily run away again?

Sister to Narcissa Black Malfoy and Bellatrix Black Lestrange, cousin to Sirius and Regulus Black, mother to Nymphadora Tonks...you know who she is. And this is her story, including the most important parts of her life: her childhood, her early days at Hogwarts, and how she met and fell in love with muggleborn Ted Tonks.
